I've looked at phhttpd only, and it actually does not use si_band at all,
but it uses si_fd, but as on Alpha si_band is first:
/* SIGPOLL */
struct {
int _band; /* POLL_IN, POLL_OUT, POLL_MSG */
int _fd;
} _sigpoll;
changing it to long would move si_fd.
Alternatively, if we could be sure noone uses si_band anywhere, alpha could
do:
/* SIGPOLL */
struct {
int _dummy;
int _fd;
long _band; /* POLL_IN, POLL_OUT, POLL_MSG */
} _sigpoll;
Cheers,
Jakub
